Poland: A Future for Medical Tourism

If you think that medical tourism
is only popular in Thailand, India, and Singapore, then think again. You might
not have heard of Poland, not at all, when it comes to medical tourism. Based from
recent studies, Poland surfaces among patients looking for cancer treatment, cardiovascular
surgery, and dental procedures, among others.

Both Europeans and Americans have
started to realize the importance of medical tourism in the country and make it
as one of their choices when deciding to get treatment beyond borders.

It’s related to the recent
medical program of the government that aims to make the country as one top
destination among tourists seeking for medical treatment abroad. The government
missions to make their home a great destination for medical tourists and part
of its promotion are a more visible stand to improve diagnosis, treatment, and
rehabilitation.

"Poland becomes a more visible
spot among new players in the medical tourism sector. It becomes a good rival
to promote and compete among other established countries such as Thailand,
India, and Turkey."

The country is continuing to
encourage facility owners and medical practitioners to win medical tourists
from other countries such as the United States, Russia, and Germany. In
connection, the country has become an active participant in many trade fairs,
meetings with the foreign press, and potential investors—all with one aim—to become
noticed by foreigners seeking for medical treatment abroad.

Do you think Poland has a future
in medical tourism? Write down your comments. For sure the medical tourism
community would like to hear what you have to say.
